The Play Pod: Play with purpose

This year, as part of the Sydney Design Festival, Hoyne came together with Scott Carver to create the Play Pod, a life-sized ‘Rubik’s Cube’ of outdoor activation for all ages to enjoy.

Designed as a solution to activate ugly, unused spaces and act as a magnet for people, the Play Pod is a modular, adaptable structure that can be manipulated to suit the needs of users and easily relocated. Able to be placed anywhere and to support a diversity of activities and activations, the Play Pod is a solution to increase the social value of space by providing a platform for use, day and night. Over the course of the 10-day festival we curated a series of activities and events for the Play Pod, activating it at key points throughout the day.
